Abstract

We have recently reported that terminal acetylenes react in a stereo-and regioselective 1 manner with Me3AP.-CJ~ 2ZrCp2 to produce (E__)-2-methylalkenylmetal derivatives. Our finding that the carbometallated products consist essentially of (_EE)-2-methylalkenylalanes (__4) prompted us to test the feasibility of converting 4 to 2 via known one-carbon homologation reactions of alkenylalanes. 4-8 We therefore chose l-heptyne as a test ...
